Creek Turning Basin, 1892.

Redwood Creek Turning Basin, 1892.
Redwood City developed rapidly due to the discovery of a deep-water
channel that extended off of San Francisco Bay. Settlers established
a series of wharves for shipping lumber and other products
along what became known as "Redwood Creek." This
photo was taken approximately from what is now the intersection
of Broadway and Wharf streets, looking toward the entrance
to the Marshall Street Parking Garage.
